Description:
mplayer does not stop xscreensaver daemon. the display does to screensaver mode while playing video. Additional info: * package version(s) mplayer 28347-1 mplayer-plugin 3.55-1 * config and/or log files etc. See .xscreensaver Steps to reproduce: Use the .xscreensaver file. The display is set to Blank after 9 mins. Play video in mplayer and watch the screen going blank after 9 mins. |
This task depends upon
I have xscreensaver 5.08-1. Upgrading to mplayer 28347-1 breaks the xscreensaver stop capability. Downgrading mplayer to 1.0rc2-10 makes the problem go away.
There was recent merge in mplayer PKGBUILD, maybe some options left out.
See -heartbeat-cmd in mplayer(1) for a workaround.
If you are using a recent version of MPlayer, put this in your ~/.mplayer/config file:
heartbeat-cmd="xscreensaver-command -deactivate"
